Insomnia

PROPER REST IS ESSENTIAL TO GOOD HEALTH

We can help you to achieve a peaceful, quality sleep.

If your sleep is habitually disturbed it can be very damaging to the vital energy of the body and immune system.

You will be amazed at how a good night’s sleep can change your life. With more rest your energy and focus improve, the immune system and your body’s ability to deal with stress are strengthened, and nagging health conditions resolve more easily.

Sleep can be disrupted by pain, hormonal imbalances, digestive or cardiovascular disorders, anxiety and depression and many medications create the side-effect of sleeplessness.The effects of imbalance can result in a difficulty quieting the mind when preparing for sleep, sleep that is easily disturbed by light or sound or a very restless, agitated or dream disturbed sleep.

Stimulating food and drink including spicy foods, heavy meats, rich sauces, alcohol and caffeine should be avoided in the evening. Stressful mental work should be avoided if possible in the evenings and vigorous exercise should be scheduled earlier in the day.

Activity should be restful. Meditation or gentle stretching and breathing exercises can help prepare the body for sleep. Some people find a tea of chamomile or valerian beneficial. For some soaking their feet in warm water helps to draw the energy down from the head and quiet the mind. A gentle foot massage can relax the body and the mind as well.

Many of us develop unhealthy patterns of sleep early in life. This lack of proper sleep eventually takes its toll.

If you are not getting the rest you need, take the steps to change it now. You will be truly grateful for the benefits you will receive!
